Moving a website without noticeable downtime

The safe approach is to copy first, test next and only then change DNS. Keep the old environment active for a little while.

What does this mean in practice?

With good preparation, a website can usually be moved without visitors noticing. For most website owners, the goal is a stable, secure and maintainable solution.

What should you consider?

Look at the full combination of technology, management, backups and support. A single specification never tells the whole story.

Practical next step

Check your current situation, make a backup first and implement changes step by step. This makes it easy to go back if something turns out differently than expected.
